These were reasons why the Office of the Narcotics Control Board (ONCB) chose Phetchaburi as the first location for its drugrehabilitation camp, set up following the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO)'s guidelines on treating drug addicts who voluntarily admit themselves to the programme.
Sunthorn Vinaibordee, director of ONCB Region 7 Office, said the programme aimed to help change the behaviour of drug addicts so they can lead normal lives.
